Sessions the do nothing AG

Well then....

 

I was actually laughing when I heard the news Saturday. Now it will be interesting to see if charges are brought against Comey for perjury.

 

Being a novice at politics, especially at being president, it is quite conceivable that he needed to bring in the group of Secretaries that the did in order to get things moving. Now that he has his first year in it's time to sort through the group and weed out those that aren't on board with his agenda. I'm not surprised at all and I kind of doubt they are either.
The other thing I'll add is, if you've ever had a new CEO, site superintendent you've seen exactly this same type of behavior. The new guy comes in, takes a few months to see how things go, then starts to sort out his staff banishing those that don't meet his expectations.

 

Yeah plus you have to remember that he chose most of his cabinet based on a list that was given to him. He hired most of those people on the suggestion of others...remember he wasn't already in politics so he didn't have people lined up. Getting rid of people is a good sign, it shows that getting the job done is more important than maintaining the "appearance" of getting the job done.

 

Don't leave out that he did not gut all the Obama people on entering (probably should have).

 

I can't get over the fact that it seems some people would rather a president make people feel good (orvis) more than they like actual results.

 

I cant get over the fact that people would rather see the country fail because that means the man they hate failed.

 

But...he knows the best people and will have the best people surrounding him. So A.)Why would he even look at someone else's list and risk swamping up the place all over again? Wasn't that exactly what he ran on? B.)Now that nearly his entire cabinet and state dept are empty, where are all of these "best people" lined up wanting to work for him?

I don't personally know of anyone rooting for the country to fail. A whole lot of people want Donald to fail, but mainly because they don't want the country to fail. Agree or disagree, I'm not sure why anyone who sat through Bush or Obama would expect anything to be different under Trump. The world was going to end if Bush got a second term and Obama was the Manchurian candidate who would never leave office after gutting the constitution. Now Trump is the Russian puppet authoritarian conducting a soft coup from the executive branch...

 

You might be onto something. And the county keeps on running...kind of...well running as good as a government runs. Maybe he can chop more heads and continue downsizing the government....

 

Wait until Trump makes a recess appointment, we might all need ear plugs against the media whining.

 

What?

This right here is the takeaway from firing people, no one truly gives a F what government people get fired and if one claims to actually care, it's just your TDS flaring up again. Trump is the only politician with balls that doesn't care WTF people think, he's going to get the job done and he's exactly what we need to clean house.

 

I sure as hell hope so, I can't get enough of liberal tears.

 

If "I have the best people" doesn't ring a bell for you, I'm going to go out on a limb and say you didn't watch one debate or campaign speech from Trump.

Firing people that need to go is fine, firing everyone, and some multiple times after re-hiring them, that's extremely poor management. Turnover of the entire organization (full of people he hired) is extremely poor management. We can be as objective and results oriented in our judgement as possible and still know that the executive branch is a shitshow at the moment. The only positive is that maybe the legislative branch will stop being a bunch of do nothing idiots to try and compensate.

 

When grasping at straws, never pass up an opportunity to tilt at windmills.

 

You do realize that the Demoncats are slowing down any appointment he is making to a level of the last four presidents combined, right?

 

Yeah that’s the problem with betting on the wrong horse. That’s serendipity though. He’s fired several that committed illegal acts, but it’d have been politically unwise to keep those anyway as they were too damaged. Flynn for one was demonstrably fucked and not worth fighting for so he got the boot.

I wouldn’t read that as Trump exhibiting integrity, just shrewd political calculation.

McCabe wanted to play the game so I don’t feel sorry for him that he lost. I still see it as politically motivated though. It makes sense. Trump wants to discredit his enemies, publicly clearing out high level people who aren’t on his side is just good sense. 2 days before retirement is damned cold though, damn LOL.

I still think Trump firing Comey was a yuge mistake though. He should’ve left him there and controlled him.

 

Ya, that's what I'd do with problem employees. Keep them around....good thinking...

 

Someone gotta look out for the swamp rats.
